Have you ever felt like your life was going nowhere?
About two years ago I attended Iris Harvest School of Missions in Pemba, Mozambique, Africa. During my time in Africa I was SO wrecked for God’s Kingdom. All I could think about was going to the nations and bringing the Bride back to her Bridegroom. But Jesus had a different plan. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I came home from Mozambique, but I wasn’t expecting it to be as difficult as it was. It felt like there was trial after trial. Once one was over another was shortly around the corner. Even though it was rough, I learned so much in that season. I learned more about mercy, grace, and forgiveness. I learned perseverance and trust. I learned how to surrender my brokenness to my Daddy and let Him carry me through each trial. And most importantly…I learned that He is FAITHFUL…especially when we don’t understand what He’s doing.
When I came home there were multiple missions opportunities that I wanted to attend so badly. I just wanted to share the good news of Jesus Christ with the lost. Unfortunately, it wasn’t the right timing. The Lord was preparing me for something greater. Every time a door would close it felt as if my life was going nowhere. It felt like I was stuck in a dry desert without water. But even in these times I had to learn to TRUST in Him in a greater way. I had to lay down my passions and dreams at His feet and trust that He who began a good work in me would bring it to completion.
Over time I felt that The Lord was calling me to serve with The World Race. It seemed insane at first, but through prayer and research my heart was just drawn to it. I was nervous to apply at first because what if I had another closed door? I was nervous to step out. But He was faithful and here I am 
….officially a World Racer and I could not be happier to serve my beautiful Jesus.
One of the coolest things about my route is the fact that I will FINALLY be traveling and serving in nations that The Lord has put on my heart for years. I am especially excited to be traveling to THAILAND!!! I haven’t been there yet but THAILAND HAS MY HEART! I cannot wait to see what my Daddy God will do! It is my deepest heart’s desire to share the love of the Father with others! I’m SOOO excited to see His Kingdom come!!
If you feel like you’re stuck in a desert and your life is going nowhere…remember that He who began a good work in YOU will bring it to COMPLETION! He has your life in His hands!
Philippians 1:6 “And I’m sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.”
